Best Headphones under 10000 (September 2019)

These headphones are a great introduction to the world of Sennheiser. The 180s are ideal for wearing for long hours, and the audio quality is far superior to the options available in the market. The only weak point would be the noise isolation - while the closed back does help, the foam padding does let some of your ambient sounds in.

These headphones are ideal for music enthusiasts who love to listen to music on the move. While the PX 80 does look flimsy, it is quite strong and can handle the wear and tear of regular, rough usage. Do note that these headphones would fare poorly in a loud environment - but you will be more aware of your surroundings while travelling.

The first pro-audio option on our list, these headphones are perfect for newbies looking to spend a bit for good sound quality. The ATH-M20x may be underwhelming to someone who’s used to consumer-grade headphones, but once you spend some time with flat response headphones, you will notice how clearly you can hear all the instruments and how well the various frequencies gel together.

The pro audio community tends to be highly divided when it comes to appreciation of audio products - the Sennheiser HD 280 PRO is one of those rare headphones that managed to win over the majority of both professionals and audio hobbyists. These are great for music lovers who can listen to music the way audio engineers intended the music to be heard.

The DT-770 series have been the choice of headphones of musicians, music producers and sound engineers the world over. The 770 PRO 32 headphones are the result of excellent research and development in terms of materials and components used. Though this is the 32 ohms version, its audio quality was still miles above its competitors.

'Headphones under 10000' is a great list for people to get introduced to the world of hi-fidelity audio. Stay tuned to this list to see if there are any new entrants, as the technology behind audio evolves and products get pocket-friendly.
